women mechanics

[funkymoped]

guys, would you take your car to a female mechanic ? your pride and joy, in the hands of a WOMAN !

When I got my mechanic apprenticeship many, many years ago a girl I went to school with also applied to be a mechanic (probably because of Charlene in Neighbours). They ended up sticking her in an office!

The mechanic I worked with said that there had been a few female mechanics before and although they were skillful they lacked the physical strength to do some jobs.

But anyway, in answer to your question, as long as they're fully qualified then yes I would take my car to a female mechanic (as long as it was at a reputable garage).

now now funky , i know you are trying to get a question in every section but that is just mean!!!! could you not have thought of anything else? i.e where can i buy a car seat cover for my lada turbo?

[funkymoped]

bella, i could of asked would you trust a woman with you car ? but, i thought ide ask a genuine question !!!!

lol.......turbo lada, nice idea....

[BillyNoMates]

Why ever not ? There is no reason why she would not be as qualified and competent as a male mechanic.

ahhhhhhhhhhh, im shocked at your suggestion. If shes trained the same, why on earth not??????

Me thinks Funkymoped has been watching "Tooltime" ???
I wouldn't have a problem with a women mechanic if she knew what she was doing. If she looked like Jenny McCarthy that would be a bonus !!! Same for Vicky Butler-Henderson, now that girl can drive. I don't know why, but for me there is something real sexy about a girl with the skills normally found in the Male world. ;-)

Sure. Not that I have a car, but that's not the point i'm going to make. There are a group of girls that work in an all female garage, (can't remember where) but they compete in rally's and such. They don't do too bad as well and their car didn't break down in the last event I was at. Weren't last either. Some of them are quite good looking too.

There's a female mechanic at my local garage. She happens to be rubbish but I still support women like her.

[waltadasilva]

so how do you repair a car with a nail file?

[kepla]

Good Lord what a pointless question ! Of course I wouldn't ! It isn't a question of having the training, women just don't have any real respect for decent cars. Fair enough to let them vent their PMT on some piece-of-**** Fiat or Skoda, but no way would I let one near either the Jaguar or Mercedes. Not even to clean it !

[unruliejulie]

astonishing!!! and you happily let us bring your kids up! which is more precious??????
